I re-read amendment 5 and it says "Firearm" singular...

If this has been talked about before, I'm sorry, but some of the threads on 183 got so so long I couldn't read through all of them.

I read nothing to indicate the number of weapons,but then again,I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

There is no specific number you can not carry.

This was debates on the floor, some representatives asked how may firearms law enforcement were allowed to carry.

The misinformed representative thought law enforcement officers could only carry one firearm and that other citizens should be limited to one firearm as well.

Why do you need more than 1? You trying to make up for a lack of something?

it does use the singular in a least a few places. I don't know if that is meaningful or not.

I just though he wanted to do it to tick off Arroyo.

If you carry one firearm, and then you carry one more firearm, I don't see a problem unless you try to redefine the meaning of firearm.

I'm not a lawyer but if I was I think I'd be pretty good at it, lol.
